How much are minibus rentals?
We cannot provide prices in advance from Budapest Airport to any destination in Hungary or beyond.

And here are some additional costs: tolls, parking fees, the cost of a room for your driver (overnight trips only), tips (optional, but roughly 10% in cash is recommended). Per-hour prices are used for trips that last less than a full day, while multi-day trips are charged either by day or by km. Longer-distance trips are more likely to be charged by the km.

The transportation department at Van & Bus Budapest Ltd. takes pride in the way its buses look and run. Transporting 250-400 passengers daily on 15 buses and 20 vans, the company does all of its own maintenance in a new, state-of-the-art bus shop with six open bays. In their previous shop, mechanics could work on only two buses at a time.
The new shop, which opened in January, boasts a machine shop, tire-changing room, upholstery room, wash rack, and paint booth. Matt Filling, the transportation supervisor, points out that a monthly maintenance program has been carried out consistently and that his department has received perfect state inspections for the past few years.
Here are some recent awards we’ve received
vallalkozoi-hitel.com, publisher of Vállalkozói Hitel és Támogatás and founder of the Banking & Finance Awards. Bus Awards, the most coveted award in the private transport industry. In addition, our Career Growth Workplace Program has already won two awards.
Fleet Maintenance and Safety Rules
Matt Filling, who also plans to provide CPR and first aid training to all his drivers, believes strongly in preventive maintenance as a means of ensuring safety. The Director of operations feels that Van & Bus Budapest Ltd. is lucky to have Matt.
In addition, the winter climate necessitates door-to-door service — for all passengers. The adverse winter weather affects more than routing and scheduling. The buses themselves are vulnerable to harsh conditions and require special protection. When not in use, the buses are stored indoors. They’re equipped with an average of five heaters to keep the engine, battery, and other vital parts functioning and are plugged into electric outlets whenever parked outdoors to prevent freezing of fluids.
Fleet maintenance is one of Van & Bus Budapest Ltd.’s strengths, and it shows exemplary inspection results, which state officials say are among the best. Matt Filling, the transportation supervisor, credits a rigorous 110-step summer inspection of each vehicle. The Van & Bus Budapest Ltd.’s three mechanics are all ASE-certified as Master Technicians.
